Hi Sathish, I too mentioned the same thing..... I have changed my code and checked ...but not got that worked. Here is the code which I finally got worked !!! CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fun_orderreport(pmorderid integer, pmcompanyid integer, pmeventid integer) RETURNS SETOF orderreport AS $BODY$ DECLARE vResult ORDERREPORT%ROWTYPE; vSql TEXT = ' SELECT ORDR.ORDERSID AS OrderID, ORDR.INITIATED AS Order_Date, COMP.COMPANYNAME AS Company_Name, EVNT.EVENTNAME AS Event_Name FROM ORDERS ORDR INNER JOIN COMPANY COMP ON COMP.COMPANYID = ORDR.COMPANY INNER JOIN EVENT EVNT ON EVNT.COMPANY = COMP.COMPANYID WHERE ORDR.EVENT = EVNT.EVENTID '; BEGIN IF $1 IS NOT NULL THEN vSql = vSql ||' AND ORDR.ORDERSID = '|| $1; END IF; IF $2 IS NOT NULL THEN vSql = vSql ||' AND COMP.COMPANYID = '|| $2; END IF; IF $3 IS NOT NULL THEN vSql = vSql ||' AND EVNT.EVENTID = '|| $3; END IF; vSql = vSql || ';'; FOR vResult IN EXECUTE vSql LOOP RETURN NEXT vResult; END LOOP; RETURN; END $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE; SELECT * FROM fun_orderreport(NULL,NULL,NULL); Thanks, MuraliDharan V -----Original Message----- From: Gnanavel Shanmugam [mailto:s.gnanavel@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2008 12:11 PM To: Sathish Duraiswamy Cc: Willy-Bas Loos; pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx; MuraliPD@GMail Subject: Re: [GENERAL] Need help returning record set from a dynamic sql query Just a thought.... Why can't you create a temporary table from your dynamic query and use that temp table in the for loop.

But I have created the type to return the record set from my join query using a stored function. I cannot able to create a table with that details …. Since those details will be already available from different tables. One more thing …. I am clear with your result set using FOR ..LOOP but mine is not a normal query… it was built Dynamic based on my Input Parameters. Please look and tell me if you are not clear with my query.

For eg CREATE TYPE date_condition ( condition_id int, from_date date, to_date date); Instead , you can CREATE TABLE (ORDERSID INTEGER,ORDERDATE TIMESTAMP,COMPANYNAME TEXT,EVENTNAME CHARACTER VARYING); You can have result returning a set of records Feel free to comment on it Regrds sathish On Tue, Aug 12, 2008 at 3:08 PM, MuraliPD@GMail < murali.pd@xxxxxxxxx > wrote: Hi, Iam new to Postgresql, now i need to create a Dynamic SQL Query for returning the record set based on my Input Parameters.
